Thanksgiving: 2024

Thursday is Thanksgiving, and I certainly have so much to be thankful for this year. 3+ years ago, my parents took me to New York to see Judy. That was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Once I learned to talk by spelling, they could have decided to stop driving here, but I love coming to M2H. (We live in Massachusetts, so it is a long drive.)  I worried that if I learned to spell, they’d stop bringing me. I’d purposely make mistakes, in fact, until one day my mother thought to reassure me. 


Now, two years later, they still drive me down every Monday.  How fortunate am I? I look back at my pre-Judy years and feel so lucky there are no words. Having spent so many years in silence, learning nothing, doing nothing meaningful with my time on this earth, I am now learning new things every day. I have friends both here and in MA. My family knows me for who I really am.

So yeah, on Thanksgiving I may not be eating the turkey and stuffing, but no one will be more thankful than me.
